This is probably one of the most unique connections I’ve had with a couple in a long time. Mario found me through one of my instagram posts. We instantly realized we had a connection with my former roomie and fellow Marine, Dennis from Okinawa, Japan. What a small world and what are the chances this would happen!
Mario & Jennifer wanted to keep their wedding fairly small and intimate. We did their first look at Leo Carrillo Ranch Historic Park in Carlsbad, such a beautiful hidden treasure in Carlsbad. This Spanish style ranch was built in the mid 1980’s and continues be an asset to the local community for educational purposes. Look at for the local peacocks running around the park they can be very feisty!
Due to COVID, I was not allowed to be part of the civil wedding inside the San Marcos Accessor Building.
So we decided to photograph them after at Lake View Park and Discovery Lake in San Marcos. This is a beautiful park with a stunning lake! Also another hidden gem in San Diego.
Thank you so much again to Mario & Jennifer! Wish you all the best and looking forward to working with you guys in the future!
